Halloween//Weird Tapes


I think that if electro pop had to pick a holiday it would choose Halloween as its mascot, or Valentines Day which I find equally if not more creepy (maybe this is just attributed with bad past experiences). Anyway this post is going to be the first cataloging some of the most recent electro pop (broad category) out puts that attribute to Halloween, leading up to the holiday itself.

First up is Weird Tapes, who is known only by the alias he has given himself on the blog from which he posts his songs, along with fellow artist Memory Cassette. Both are an off shoot of the group Hail Social. Weird Tapes newest track, "The Talking Dead", was posted with the above art work and is the reason I decided to focus on this list before the night of horrors. Weird Tapes has a fair share of haunting space tracks posted that are all quite danceable (Get Religion EP). With "The Talking Dead", Weird Tapes has taken a step farther into the video game electronics. Make sure to check out the blog and download all that is offered.
